7月1日清晨,希腊塞萨洛尼基发生针对执政党新民主党成员住所的燃烧弹袭击事件 [1]。此次爆炸导致一名议员候选人阿芙罗迪蒂·内斯托拉的母亲死亡,另有四人受伤 [1]。其中,29岁的嫌疑人于塞萨洛尼基被捕,另一名 26 岁的女子在克里特岛被抓获,还有一名涉嫌窝藏上述人员的男子也被警方控制 [1]。袭击发生后,阿芙罗迪蒂·内斯托拉本人因烧伤正在医院接受治疗 [1]。希腊反恐警察表示目前仍在搜寻其他潜在涉案人员 [1]。此类针对政治人物的暴力行为在希腊自 20 世纪 70 年代以来一直存在历史先例 [1]。
Greek anti-terrorist police have arrested three suspects in connection with a series of Molotov cocktail attacks on the residences of members of New Democracy, Greece's ruling party [1]. The incidents occurred early on July 1 in Thessaloniki and resulted in one death and four injuries [1]. Among those affected was Aphroditi Nestora, a candidate for parliament whose mother died during the attack while she herself suffered burns requiring hospitalization [1]. Authorities identified the arrested individuals as a 29-year-old man detained in Thessaloniki, a 26-year-old woman apprehended on Crete, and another male suspect accused of harboring the others [1]. Police stated that they are still searching for other potential accomplices involved in the violence [1]. This incident marks yet another instance of politically motivated violence occurring in Greece since the 1970s [1].
